Grey In L.A.

When its grey in L.A. I sure like it that way
Cause theres way too much sunshine around here
I dont know about you, I get so sick of blue skies
Wherever they always appear
And I sure love the sound of the rain pouring down
On my carport roof made out of tin
If theres a flood, then theres gonna be mudslides
We all have to pay for our sin
And I suppose that theyll close canyon roads
And the freeways will all start to clog
And the waters will rise and you wont be surprised
When your whole house smells like your wet dog
When its grey in L.A. its much better that way
It reminds you that this towns so cruel
Yeah, it might feel like fun when youre sporting sunglasses
But really youre just one more fool
And Im just a chump and this whole towns a dump
We came out here to dump all our dreams
Of making it big but were stuck in a singular nightmare
Thats just how it seems
And I suppose Laurie David sure knows
All those cars we drive heat up our earth
And sea temperatures rise and those constant blue skies
And brush fires can sure curb your mirth
Brad Greys in L.A. yeah okay I should stay here
Theres no place thats better I know
For a wannabe star stuck in a car
On a freeway with nowhere to go
When its grey in L.A. I sure like it that way
Cause theres way too much sunshine around here
I dont know about you, I get so sick of blue skies
Wherever they always appear
